hotel was situated in good positoin close to town centre and with plenty of parking on site, the overall hotel decor looked like it had beem refurbished recently, all areas clean and well mantained. the room was spacious bed and bathroom excellent tea coffee provided as described. the staff very friendly and professional and always around to help. the bar small but carered for the number of guests that were staying there with us. overall the hotel standards were very good and our stay was a lovely experience.
We stayed for 1 night, and that was fine. Not great if we were to have stayed longer. Our room did not have hot water, beds were not comfortable, and overall rooms/ decor need an update/ refresh. However, the staff were very kind and helpful!
The room was spacious and well decorated. We had beautiful views over Oban and the Isles. Easy safe parking. Very convenient location to business centre and ferry terminal. Quiet and safe. Would recommend.
Our stay was great not far from the ferry port .Room was clean an comfortable. Staff were lovely food was great.
Will be returning

Excellent position slightly away from the main centre, but easily walkable. Parking available behind the hotel. Good buffet breakfast. Staff very welcoming and informative.
Breakfast was excellent, variety of foods hot and everything we could have wanted.
Cereals and yoghurt with fresh fruit delicious.
Unlimited tea and coffee with wide selection of fruit tea packets.
Overall very healthy.

Directly on the coast and easy walking distance to then distillery and restaurants.
This quirky hotel is a gem in Oban. Very comfortable room once we learned how to work shower and heaters. The room was a good size with king bed. Breakfast was hearty and the coffee and brown bread were delicious. Easy to walk to shops and restaurants - we had a friend with a mobility scooter and no troubles in the hotel or town.
Really nice place to come visit. Stephanie at front desk super helpful!
Overall, the location was great, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very historic, has a lot of charm, it was a comfortable place to stay.
